I would like to make a special mention about Rob who went over and above for my family and I. Thank you so much Rob for your excellent Customer Service, your empathy and for delivering a great break for all of us."

Genoa is an important seaport in northern Italy. It is also known as 'the Superb One' due to its illustrious past. Today it rises from the sea, with two massive towers providing striking landmarks. It is a real mix of the old and the new with many grand palaces and modest houses with pastel-coloured terracotta-roofs next to each other. Add to this, numerous churches with a variety of architectural styles, lovely seaside villas, several luxurious boutiques, and streets filled with vendors and buyers, and one can understand why it is said: ‘Colourful, noisy and busy, that's Genoa’. more info

MSC Seaview Overview

Until March 2020 MSC Seaview is based at Santos, Brazil, offering coastal short holiday trips. She returns to the Mediterranean in April 2020 to run mostly 7-night cruises of the Western Mediterranean. She has four historic Mediterranean homeports for embarkation: Genoa, Civitavecchia (for Rome), Cannes and Barcelona. For tourists to Mediterranean Europe the ports visited offer a mixture of history, architecture, sunny resorts and the ship’s ‘Italian Way’ of enjoying life. MSC has designed this latest generation of cruise ships with revolutionary architecture, cutting-edge engineering technology, and guests' onboard device usage, to be at the forefront of technology. The layout of public spaces, promenade-over-the-water, panoramic lifts and LED lighting displays are examples that impress.

Accommodation

The ship features open, modular, connected staterooms, convertible staterooms and cluster cabins for families and groups, and luxury suites with private jacuzzis and hanging gardens. In all there are 11 stateroom types. They include yacht club royal, deluxe, and interior suites; family-size suites with balconies; grand suites; and standard balcony, outside and interior rooms. Roughly 72% of the cabins will have a balcony and 76% will be located outside. All staterooms feature double beds (or two singles), wardrobe, bathroom with tub and shower, air-conditioning, mini bar and safe, interactive TV, telephone, and WiFi connection (for a fee). There’s a turndown service to prepare your bed each night. Higher stateroom ‘Experiences’ move you to a higher deck and offer more perks.

Food and Dining

MSC Seaview has nine dining options, four of which are complimentary. There are two main dining rooms and two buffets. The principal dining rooms have open seating for breakfast and lunch, and two seatings for dinner. (Incidentally, instead of paying for bottled water in dining rooms – a Continental custom – fill your own bottle in your cabin, chill it in the mini-bar, and bring it with you at meal times.) ‘Anytime’ dining is available for guests in higher cabins. Expect a formal evening during a cruise. Children have the option of their own dining area, time and menu. Dietary requests must be submitted on a form ahead of time, and may be payable. Note that items in casual dining may also be pay extra – good coffees and so on. There’s no tea or coffee for lunch and dinner in the dining rooms, only in the buffet. You may have to ask for milk.

Entertainment

The line offers a rich program of shows, Broadway and Las Vegas-style theatrical performances, live music and nightlife. Fast-moving commentary comes in up to six languages, depending on your cruise location. Many productions will be visual rather than spoken. (Announcements are kept to matters of emergency, as most information appears on the daily newssheet.) There’s plenty of live music, dancing and special activities to keep you awake till late. Children and teenagers have five age-group centres and activities, while adults in the Yacht Club have the top deck to themselves. Youngsters access brand products from LEGO and Chicco. The Amusement Park and Aqua Park are adjoining, and certainly will become the focus for younger ones.
